This vintage Louis Vuitton Totally PM in Monogram canvas with tan Vachetta leather trim and gold-tone hardware is in very good condition, showing a visible patina and minor corner scuffing. Designed with dual shoulder straps, exterior slip pockets, a brown canvas lining and a top zip closure, it is an elegant choice for everyday city wear, travel days or a polished weekend look.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What typically fits inside the Louis Vuitton Monogram Totally PM Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 35 x 28 x 10 cm, this PM size works well for daily essentials such as a long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses, a small cosmetics pouch, and similar everyday items. It can also suit a small tablet or slim organiser, but it is not the best choice for larger laptops or bulky work items. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for the exact dimensions of this specific bag.
Q: Can this bag be worn comfortably on the shoulder? A: Yes. This bag has dual flat shoulder straps and a strap drop of approximately 23 cm, which makes it suitable for shoulder carry for most users. As with any structured vintage shoulder bag, the fit can feel a little different depending on your frame and outerwear.
Q: Are the two exterior side pockets functional? A: Yes. The two exterior slip pockets are one of the most practical features of the Totally PM and are ideal for slim items you want close at hand, such as a phone, travel card, keys, or receipts. They are best for quick-access essentials rather than bulky items.
Q: Is the Totally PM a good everyday bag? A: Yes, it is a strong everyday option if you want a compact Louis Vuitton shoulder bag with better organisation than an open tote. The zip-top closure adds security, while the exterior and interior pockets help keep daily essentials organised.
Q: Will this bag fit A4 papers or a laptop? A: It is better suited to personal daily essentials than to office-sized items. Slim papers may fit depending on how they are placed, but A4 documents carried upright can be awkward, and most standard laptops will be too large or too rigid for comfortable everyday use in the PM size.
Q: What does the date code DU4089 mean? A: Louis Vuitton date codes from this period indicate the place and time of production rather than serving as a unique serial number. On this bag, DU4089 corresponds to production in France in the 48th week of 2009.
Q: How should I care for the Monogram canvas and Vachetta leather? A: The coated canvas can be wiped gently with a soft damp cloth. Avoid harsh cleaners, oils, perfume, alcohol-based products, and rough surfaces. The natural Vachetta leather will darken over time and develop patina with use, which is normal. If it gets wet, blot it gently and let it dry naturally. Store the bag in a breathable space and avoid overfilling it to help preserve its shape.
Q: What condition should I expect from this specific item? A: This bag is listed in very good condition overall. The Vachetta leather shows visible patina, with darkening on the handles and minor scuffing on the corners. Inside, there is light trace of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. These signs are consistent with a well-kept vintage Louis Vuitton bag.
Q: What is included with this bag? A: This listing is for the bag only. No additional items are included with this piece.
Q: How is authenticity checked for this bag? A: At A Retro Tale, every item is reviewed by experts using a multi-point authentication process that assesses details such as materials, construction, stitching, hardware, stamps, and date codes. The date code is one useful indicator, but authenticity is always judged as part of the bag as a whole.
